The distance between two stations is 240 km. A train takes 4 hours to cover this distance. Calculate the speed of the train.

A

40 km `h^(-1)`

B

50 km `h^(-1)`

C

60 km `h^(-1)`

D

70 km `h^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Distance = 240 km Time taken = 4 hours
Speed = `("distance covered")/("time taken" )=( 240 km)/(4h)`= 60 km/h Speed of train = 60 km/h.
